Network Topology decides how Devices on a Network will be interconnected. General used Topologies are BUS, RING & STAR Topologies.
Network topologies is the means in which a network is structured. There are two types being physical and logical. Logical topology shows how data is delivered between a network.
I found and linked below a website that has information on many, but not all, network topologies.
Here are some common types of network topologies: Bus Topology: In a bus topology, all devices are connected to a single central cable (the bus). Data travels along the bus and is received by all devices on the network. Each device has a unique address, and devices communicate directly with the bus. Star Topology: In a star topology, each device is connected directly to a central hub or switch. All data passes through the central hub, which manages and controls the flow of information between devices. If one device fails, it does not affect the rest of the network. Ring Topology: In a ring topology, each device is connected to two other devices, forming a closed loop or ring. Data travels in one direction around the ring. Devices act as repeaters to strengthen the signal as it passes through each device. Mesh Topology: In a mesh topology, every device is connected to every other device in the network. This creates multiple paths for data to travel, enhancing reliability and fault tolerance. Mesh networks can be full mesh (every device connected to every other device) or partial mesh (only some devices are interconnected). Tree Topology: Tree topology combines characteristics of star and bus topologies. Devices are arranged in a hierarchical structure, with multiple star networks connected to a central bus backbone. This allows for scalability and efficient data flow. Hybrid Topology: Hybrid topology combines two or more different types of topologies to form a larger network. For example, a network might combine elements of star and mesh topologies to create a more flexible and scalable network infrastructure. Each type of network topology has its advantages and disadvantages in terms of cost, scalability, reliability, and ease of management. The choice of topology depends on factors such as the size of the network, the type of applications used, and the level of redundancy and fault tolerance required.
star topology
A network or the network's layout. How different nodes in a network are connected to each other and how they communicate are determined by the network's topology. Topologies are either physical or logical. Below are diagrams of the five most common network topologies.
Star topologies. Sometimes combined topologies are used of which i have no idea!! :P
The complex combination of pure topologies is called a Hybrid. Examples of hybrid are star ring network and star bus network.
